Six relevant IRS Rules
Rule 1: Properties are of like-kind if they're of the same nature or character, even if they differ in
grade or quality. Example - an apartment building would generally be like-kind to another
apartment building.
Rule 2: The basis of the original property carries over to the new property. It doesn’t change. So
if your investor has a property worth $500,000 with a basis of $100,000, and then exchanges it
for a property also worth $500,000, the basis in the new property is $100,000 plus any new debt
taken on and any cash paid out.
Rule 3: The new property has to come with the same or greater debt load for the investor. If it
doesn’t, the investor is liable for paying the gain on the difference.
Rule 4: The investor has to use a qualified intermediary (QI) to conduct the exchange. This
means that your clients can’t do the exchange for themselves. The intermediary must be a person
who has NOT worked with the investor within the last two years.
Rule 5: The investor has 45 days from the day of closing on one property to identify and commit
in writing to the next property. The investor has 180 days from the date the original property
closes to close on the new investment property.
Rule 6: The 1031 must be disclosed to the buyer. At the time of the sale and at the time of the
purchase, you have to tell the parties to the transactions that you’re doing a like-kind exchange—
and get the disclosure in writing.
